# Superset hands-on examples
> Examples showing how to run queries and build dashboards in Superset.
The Superset hands-on examples page demonstrates how to use Superset.
It includes two examples, running a query and creating charts and dashboards.
## Run a query
Generally, when using SQL Lab to run a query, you take the following steps:
1. Select a catalog, schema, and table.
2. Enter a query and run it. Superset displays all available tables.
Assume you entered a query that does the following:
* Selects unique employee IDs and first names
* Orders the results by employee ID in ascending order
* Limits the results to 50 rows
```sql theme={null}
SELECT DISTINCT employee_id, first_name
FROM employees1
ORDER BY employee_id ASC
LIMIT 50
```
There are some important things to know when trying to understand your result.
* On Superset, this query would generate a table preview.
SQL Lab query example
* If you'd rather create a table or view, you can click the dropdown menu beside
**Run**. It provides an option to create a table or view.

* After running the query, the results appear in a table format.

* You can also view a history of when you ran these queries.

## Create a dashboard
You can create charts and dashboards in Superset to explore and visualize your data.
Follow these steps to create a line chart and dashboard:
1. From the Superset navigation bar, click **Charts** and select **+ Chart**
to create a new chart.
2. Choose the dataset you want to visualize.
3. Choose a chart type, for example, `Line Chart`, and click **Create New Chart**.
4. Configure the chart:
* Set the X-axis.
* Set the Metrics.
* Optional: Add filters or groupings as needed.
5. Click **Create Chart** to preview the chart.
6. Click **Save**, enter a chart name, select or create a dashboard, and
click **Save & Go to Dashboard**.
The following images show what the chart creation process looks like and
the outcome of adding the chart to a dashboard.
